I've sent my recollections of my first ever visit to Central Park to 'wigan1872@gmail.com'
Now I'm thinking of all the thousands of other games I've seen there.

It'll cost an arm and a leg to haul this character ac ross the Atlantic, no doubt first class flights and hotel and he won't put one extra backside on a seat at the game. Waste of money!.

Always the first game of the season and alternating with Warrington only. (When a programme cos...

Re: Rohan Smith's Leeds Rhinos future unclear as player pressure ramps up
It looks like Gary Heatherington is stepping down, or up to boardroom level 1, so that leaves the field open for Sinfield and uncle Tony. G H is definitely moving up though so there is a poison chalice of a job for someone there.

Re: Excuse me Mr Rooney!
You know, Morley, you are so right. I'm nigh on 85 and lived every minute in Billinge On the rare occasion I meet my old Billinger mates in the pub, we always use the dialect.

He'll be sadly missed.

Re: Oliver gildart
At least, when and if he does come back to Leigh or some other club, he'll be one of a few who didn't come back injured. Of the top of my head I can think of John Bateman, Sam Tomkins, Lee Mossop, Dan Sarginson, Joe Burgess, Denis Betts and Tommy Leului. All came back needing long term treatment. Th...

Re: Oliver gildart
Total Rugby League, today, saying that Lammy wants him at Leigh. He's not getting any game-time in down under and he probably is looking for a way back home now.
